I don't really mind loose draw all that much. Actually I'll take it over a tight draw any day. With loose draw, you have the option to control it yourself unlike tight draw.

"I want to work for the cigar" Perfect description of my exact opposite. I don't think I've ever experienced a Davidoff with a "loose" or "open" draw. Which leads me to think that you might be much more used to (what I consider) the intolerably tight draw of many Cubans. It is funny though how you describe being so angry at a loose draw. That's my exact feeling around tight draws. Makes the cigar tedious, and tends to alter the flavors in a negative way. 🤷‍♂️

Usman is used to tight and plugged Cubans. That's why the NW went bitter because he is drawing too hard, hence the hot fast burning cigar. In my humble opinion Cubans are over rated. Out of a box of 25 Epi No 2's aged for 4 years in their box in a humidor 8 were plugged/un smokable. In almost 30 years of smoking cigars I can probably count on one hand how many plugged NW I have smoked. I love certain Cubans but lean towards NW as they tend to be more reliable when it comes to their draw and flavour profile. Hay and grass gets a bit boring sometimes.

why dont you get a small punch cutter, it should fix your loose draw problems

for cigars with loose drawing "issue" like most Davidoff, you should have used a smaller punch, instead of cutter.

I absolutely love a loose draw. The more smoke the better in my opinion.

C.Gars are now selling the Cohiba Behike 54 for £419.99 now and on some sites they are going for £500. 😮

Great review and great production. I couldn't agree more regarding a loose draw on a cigar. I smoked a Trinidad Topes (my first Topes) on Sunday and was it was like a wind tunnell. Terrible experience and a waste of money. Fortunately, it was followed by an Esmerelda later that night which was immaculate👌. PS: I like the handshake analogy too. Hopefully Covid isn't about to herald the end to the humble handshake!

Yes sorry about that, it was filmed over two days I didn’t realise how much I made that point.

Thanks for the review! With the recent price hike, you should make a video comparing BHK Flavor profile vs other Cohiba sticks flavor profiles (aged or not) and compare for best bang/buck ratio.

If you want a Behike at 30 punds, get san cristobal del habana 20th anniversary edition. it's and exclusive release for la casa del habano stores and a limited edition, but it's the best cigar I've ever smoked, and I smoke cigars since I was 17. I would buy 10 boxes of those if I had enough storage in my humidor

Great review Usman, 2 real heavy weights. I love Davidoff's but I tend to always go for the regular production cigars, not special releases (even though the Royal is a RR). They smoke well and the draw is fine..... for me. I like smaller ring gauges and figurado's. But I get what you mean. I had cigar recently which felt like sucking air through a straw, the moment I started I wanted it to end. The Behike looks and sounds like the real deal. A shame as its so freakin expensive and now I feel the need to try one. But in some ways its like drinking wine, how much better is a £30 red compared to a £190 red? Its personal preference. Is the Behike better than a Siglo vi? Is the extra cost justified? Having never smoked the latter I wouldn't know. Was it in your book? Good honest review, nice work.

We don't get a lot of chance at good Cubans here in the states but everyone I know that maintains Cubans here as the humidity around 65 where new world is around 70/72. Assuming the davidoff might be stored closer to 65 it might be a bit dry compared to the Cuban. Maybe try running a new world humidor at 72. Let them rest a while and see if that makes a difference for you.

Southern Draw sticks have a wide open draw but they don’t burn any hotter or faster than normal. I appreciate any draw other than almost to completely plugged. Thanks for the content

How was the davidoff stored? I bet it's RH was too low. I've never felt like my davidoffs have a ridiculously loose draw, mainly because I store them at higher RH than my cubans.

Another top review. Nice one, Usman

great reviews as always. personally I love cigars with an open draw (they are hot if you draw to aggressively), i view tough draws like Mc Donald's milk shake, don't make me work for my pleasure lol but love your handshake analogy too. great work man.

Agreed on loosely wrapped cigars! They cannot burn correctly so one of those cannot be an excellent cigar. If a cigar stays lit it can hardly be too tight. Kind of like an espresso that does not extract correctly- it cannot taste good even if the coffee is great. The draw is everything!

They can. You just have to take slower draws, and not suck so hard. A loose draw with plenty of smoke production trumps a plugged Cuban all day long.

Awesome review, Amen to your arguments

I have had all three Behikes sizes and my favorite is the 54. I have not had that Davidoff Royal, but I have smoked a bunch of the Solomon versions. Two of my all time favorites. I guess I will save my money and not get the Royal Robusto. lol.

Rock star status bro!!!

Limp handshake comment was awesome 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I’ve herd people say the Davidoff has a loose draw mate, how did you find it?

It's a matter of preference. Good review.

So what are his feelings on a loose draw? I couldn’t tell…. 😂 No but i love me some Behikes. They are pretty much my sole smoke these days. Worth the extra money over a typical premium cigar.

What separates good cigars from bad ones for me is the draw and i hate a tight draw.... absolute killer when it comes to enjoyment. Padron and davidoff both have a loose draw. Which is one of the reason they command such high prices. They Produce amazing amount of smoke which is smooth and thick. Padron and Davidoff have the absolute perfect draw. Never had a bad one from both companies.

I hate loose draw as well. I like some resistance.

I do remember Monte Christo Churchill cigars from the beginning of the 2000th. It was a pain in the ass to smoke this shit. MUCH to tight and much to strong wrapped. The perfect draw is somewhere between loose and tight.....

The royal release is not at all a “spicy cigar”. Must have been stored incorrectly. I have 50 of them. It should be coco forward, with a hint of nutmeg and toasted almonds. First reviewer of this stick I ever heard accuse it of being spicy. LOL.

Strong double puffs on a loose cigar is why it’s getting hot. A loose cigar sitting in an ashtray does not get hotter than a snug one. It’s how you smoke it. Just slow down.

But that's a construction issue then. I have to smoke a long filler cigar the same way I need to smoke a short filler, which isn't ideal. As much as we complain about tight drawing cigars and ones that are plugged, a loose drawing cigar is similarly poor when it comes to contruction. It's the same thing but on the opposite side of the spectrum.

I remember paying 70 Canadian Dollars for a Behike 52 in 2015. And i thought it was overpriced then lol 😂😂

To clarify, the Davidoff didn't have an open draw it had an empty draw. IT was basically a wind tunnel and cigars such as those are flawed in how they were produced. There's a balance between a having a good draw versus a difficult draw and I prefer something a little on the firmer side. Having said that Almost every other Davidoff cigar I have smoked has exactly the kind of draw that I enjoy.

I understand you bought the cigars with your own money, however tell me your family has money with out telling me your family has money😉

I do generally prefer Cuban cigars. Thats not a secret.

I'll probably never smoke a Behike. I'm pretty sure I'll be missing something, but perhaps not something worth an extra 150£. I'll just have to seek comfort in my Siglo's and live vicariously though you. On a side note: I think maybe you should ask yourself; what can be said about this cigar that is interesting and not repetitive? You don't have to make a script, but rather think about it beforehand, maybe do some light research and jot a few bullet points down on a piece of paper that you can refer to when you sense that you're getting stuck talking about the draw.
